Another Fan Duel MLB $500 Free Roll Is Taking Place This Friday!!!

My first Fan Duel MLB Free Roll team on Opening Day didn’t fare so well (how was I supposed to know Clayton Kershaw would suddenly come down with the flu mid-game?). Thankfully, I won’t have to wait long for my shot at redemption, as the guys at Fan Duel will be holding another $500 MLB Free Roll on Friday, April 13 (beginning with the 7:00 pm ET games).

If you didn’t join our last Fan Duel Free Roll, you won’t want to miss out a second time. After all, this real-money contest is fast, easy, and best of all, IT’S FREE!!!

The rules to the game are simple. All you have to do is sign up and/or sign in here (or click on the “play now” button at the bottom) and pick a team consisting of players at every position for Friday’s games (only those beginning after 7pm ET). Once you’ve done that, you can sit back and watch the action unfold while you keep track of your team’s progress through Fan Duel’s live updated scoring system. Once all of Friday night’s games are complete, the $500 in cash prizes will be credited accordingly to the accounts of the top 13 participants, with first place taking $125.

I certainly plan on using this second chance to capture first-place and take home the $125 with my “Icisic83″ team. Hopefully Toronto Blue Jays starter Brandon Morrow (whom I will likely choose as my starting pitcher) doesn’t come down with the flu and prevent that from happening this time around.
